Do you know someone that has been refused entry?

After all the debate here,

Do any of you actually know anyone that has been refused entry to the U.S since the new rules?

No.

No one at all. Not even a rumour of anyone being turned down for a visa or turned back at an entry port.[msnsmile2][msnsmile2]

Remember, if it isn't sensational and/or controversial then it isn't newsworthy.[msnwink][msnwink]

I dont know any body in person but the travel agent who booked our holiday had friends go over last year and the husband was deported leaving the wife and kids to go on their holiday by theirselfs. How awfull that must have been for them. I know i wont be taking any chances its a catch 22 situation everybody will do different things. I personaly want to enjoy the run up of this holiday, plan all the things we want to do and know i will be able to get into america to do them.

No. It would be interesting to know if there are any official figures considering the several million who actually fly into the US( not just Florida) I would guess it would be a very very very small blip.

I saw something the other day which said that 437 people (that's all over the country not just Florida) had been stopped from entering since the new regs. When you compare that to the figure they gave of 55,000 flights taking off and landing every day in the country the numbers are miniscule.

I have a small conviction going back 8 years,

but with me getting married in sep then i am deffo going over for a visa.....just worried i dont get it.

I had a mate who went over to states last month, he has a good few recent convictions and had no problems, he didnt apply for a visa.

Catch 22 again

My friend was stopped and held in an office for a few hours on her last trip before marrying her boyfriend who lived here on an H1B....she had been over 2 times already that year...the lawyer had told her to always bring proof of job etc in England.....they let her in telling her not to re-entre...until she was married and on her new visa......
